A truly unique mystery/thriller/ghost story. I couldn't put it down once I started.

Interesting psychological mystery/suspense. Still held my attention despite a nasty main character - Bart Crane, an attorney from Toronto who has to go to Murdoch to defend a difficult client accused of murdering 2 teenage girls. Bart is a lying, evidence stealing, cocaine addicted criminal defense lawyer who cares nothing about his client and only cares about winning. Wanting to finish the book was my desire to see Bart get his. Bart's encounter with his past and the supernatural in Murdoch, sets him spiraling downward. His carefully constructed facade of smooth, tough attorney starts unraveling. Bart get more than his comeuppance by the end - he reaches a sort of redemption. Writing is vague at times but interesting to read since it's quite different from most mystery, psych suspense books out there.

I'm giving it a 2 1/2 because I finished it. Reviewers descibed this as "Brilliant", "Compelling", "Dazzling" and for me it was like looking at a Picasso and finding myself saying over and over what do they see that I don't? Is it possible that reviews for another book were posted to this one in error?
The main character is repulsive and, double that, a lawyer. He is representing a client accused of murdering two girls. Neither character has a whole lot of dimension or substance. There are a number of things skating on thin ice in this novel.
I'd be glad to hear someone tell me what I'm missing in this one though.

I absolutely, positively loved this book! It was a mystery/thriller with a bit of supernatural thrown in. The character development was awesome (at least for the main character). I highly recommend it!!!

Good but very odd at the same time. I found myself skimming thru the ending

Very interesting story; author gives enough detail so you can picture the people and places.

So strange that I actually read it again - and I never do that with a book
